Just a wee hello out into the void or perhaps not so. My blog friend Jeanne of I dream of put the fear into me that I had, indeed dropped off the Blogger Dashboard. Off the dashboard and into the fire? I certainly hope not. But while I realize that this may be a sort of “what is the sound of one hand clapping?” kind of proposition, would anyone that does see this mind letting me know if I am indeed “still here”? I actually thought of calling this post something of the sort but was all too aware that I would be called out for going “deep” yet again. Sigh. My friends. I have had so much goodness coming from you all of late. And for those of you that have asked for larger photos, well, as you can see, it is possible, although they won’t stay at this XL size any more than the gorgeous pivoines could stay with us forever. If only.
And as it is a mega rarity that I put out such a random post, I will take advantage by wondering what music are you listening to right now? I would love to know!
Thanks for being here…
*Update: You are all so amazing! Thank you for the reassurance. Must have just been a coincidence of a drop in visits and Jeanne’s question. But I need to go missing more often. Especially if it is an excuse to hear what you are all listening to–I love how the choices fit so perfectly each persons personality. Brilllliant! *
Vero, I heard the best broadcast on Mr. Trenet on a cold and rainy evening last year. And it blew me away–because I am finally able to understand his beautiful and witty lyrics! Yes, ça c'est la musique de la Belle France…Bisous!
Will look forward to it Karena–you know how much I love that series!
Love the larger photos Heather… so lovely… Looking forward to our promenade… xv
Bonjour Heather. I see you too. I have just been away from blogging for a while. All the sun we have been getting in Seattle has made me giddy and unproductive (locals will understand why…) Beautiful photo. I, too, am happy you made them bigger. As for music, I have been playing my old buddy Charles Trenet a lot in the morning lately. Since I will be flying to France in June, his songs put me in the right mood! "Douce France, cher pays de mon enfance… Bercee de tant d'insouciance… Je t'ai gardee dans mon coeur…" Bonne semaine, Heather. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Claire de Lune/ De Bussy….I missed you however here yu were all along!!

He snores?! I love that! Ben does not–but does of course make the muffled barks when he dreams. 🙂
You're still on my dashboard with no problems and the only beautiful music I'm hearing at the moment is the sound of Dylan dog snoring….lol. Love your peony!

Now, I imagine that Kathleen is perhaps referring to the big Thee–but I could most certainly say the same thing about you both. Gros, gros bisous…
I do blame the Blogger Gremlins. Or possibly the effect of having a blaze of sun on your brain. 🙂 But I am so glad that you asked and that I was paranoid as this has ended up being a fun post!
Pink Martini + Jeanne = Seattle at its best!
Oh hooray! Thank you for that. I am some pretty fine company, better sharpen up my pencils.
And there is no such thing as too ecclectic as far as music choices are concerned in this house! Remi and I both LOVE the music from "Out of Africa" (well, who doesn't actually) but can only listen to it really loudly which isn't always appropriate. Not to mention that I tear up EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear the main theme. Not that there is anything wrong with crying, as we have already established. 😉
Vintage Crowded Houses is sounding like an excellent idea for this hazy day and I still need to listen to the clips from Rita's CD. You aren't alone in loving it!
